EagleFan344 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 So I will be going to the West Coast July 18th. I will be at SFMM Wed July 18th, Thu the 19th and maybe Fri the 20th. I will be at KBF Monday the 23rd. Will be in Vegas briefly Tues the 24th. I will be a single rider, so what ride should I go to first? Last? Any food suggestions for both parks? Is Manhattan Express worth $12.50 for the credit? Any discounts for Speed: The Ride, Manhattan Express or KBF that you guys know about? (I have a Six Flags Season Pass). Any other suggestions such as car/row recommendations for certain coasters, times to ride each ride, or anything else an enthusiast from IL may need to know is GREATLY appreciated.

socalMAN123 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Well, since you are a single rider, I would say head to Tatsu first. That way, you can take advantage of X's single rider line later in the day. After Tatsu, just make a clockwise rotation of the park starting at Deja Vu. As for row suggestions, I tend to prefer front row on Riddler's, back row on Goliath, and back row on Tatsu. If you want a discount to Knott's, I just saw a commercial where you can get tickets for $31 at Ralphs. Hope I helped! ---Brent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Johnson Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Manhattan Express is one of the worst coasters I have ridden. At least I knew I was going to be ripped off for that credit, but just had to get it. However, Speed ($10), as well as Canyon Blaster (I think it was $5), are quite decent. If you are driving out to Las Vegas from L.A. you might as well stop by Primm and get your Desperado credit. It is right on the way. While the coaster is just okay, the price isn't too bad at $7.50. We could not find any discounts for the coasters in Vegas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryH Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 You can buy your tickets from Knott's website for around $40. AAA has a discount for Knott's too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must've been temporary, because I swear there were some since me and my brother used them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleFan344 Posted July 10, 2007 Author Share Posted July 10, 2007 What row is X the best in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjgx Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 ^I prefer the front row, one of the inside seats. It's the smoothest, you get the best view of the first drop, and the second raven turn is more comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
